Technical | How To / 06 MXU 300 Overcharging
« on: February 02, 2014, 06:06:44 PM »
Hey guys,
working on a friends 06 MXU 300, came in my shop with a dead battery and wouldn't start when hooked up to batt charger.
put a new ignition box in and battery due to ignition box bubbled and melted on the back, ran great after.
now its back 3 months later same condition, got the atv running and found that its overcharging and has cooked the water out of the battery.
my question is, do the stators short out normally or is the voltage regulator box solely responsible for getting the voltage in check as to not smoke the entire electrical system?

MXU / 06 MXU 300 overcharging

Hey guys, just joined the forum for some insight on and issue I am having with a friends ATV.
Its an 06 MXU 300, having issues with the charging system and battery. Recently put in a new ignition box because it was bubbled and burned out, now roughly 3 months later the ATV stalled again, after getting it in the shop and getting it to start I read upwards of 25 volts!
I really have no idea whats all involved in the charging systems on these machines as I own and ride Polaris.
 Is the stator shorted or is it just a voltage regulator gone bad?  Any insight would be greatly appreciated!
